ONE YEAR SOBER!😮‍💨

im glad to hear someone who went through this too, i went to a group for addicts and they laughed in my face because "marijuana isn't a drug". Weed can cause health issue and it can be super addictive.

it’s such a display of strength to get sober or cleanse any addiction, you deserve your flowers <3

People get addicted to tanning or eating toilet paper or dry wall. At the end of the day, you can become addicted to anything. I think especially when you have mental health issues, THC dependence can be a slippery slope. I had a problem with a lot of things, and especially with my mental health issues, the paranoia that came with being high, really really f'd me up for a really long time. I'm a little over a year sober from all drugs and alcohol. My mind is more clear than it has ever been. Pretty cool that me and what was for a very long time, my favorite creator, got sober at about the same time. Hope things stay well Gabbie.

My best friend experienced cannabis induced psychosis followed by severe depression and unfortunately died by suicide. This situation is extremely rare and weed is honestly fine for so many people but for some people their brain chemistry is not compatible with it and it’s okay to acknowledge that. Happy for you that you committed to what you felt was best for yourself.

I LOVE that she got straight to the point lol so many people ramble on for the first two mins of a video.

I can HEAR the peace in your voice. I feel weird as a stranger saying this, but truly, I'm so proud of you.

Hey guys, don't forget to preorder of of my new designs <3 gabbiehannaofficial.com/

Gabbie I’ve smoked every single day for the last 7 years and all the time I convince myself I’m not addicted but then I take a 5 day trip on a plane somewhere and can’t eat or drink at all, completely unwell, and I realize I am absolutely addicted and need it to digest food/for appetite purposes which is insanely wild because I know in my natural state that I don’t require it to eat but I do. It does change your brain chemistry. Quitting scares the crap out of me but this is very inspiring to watch and to see your thoughts and personality coming back out is comforting!! Congratulations 🎉 keep it up!

As someone who works with ppl with addictions, weed is not a harmless drug

I always swore weed wasn't addictive and I kept having medical issues and swore there was no way it was the weed. I have been sober 4 months now and the difference in my physical and mental health is amazing. I wish I could be someone who could just enjoy a hit every now and then but the last 6 years proved I am not that person. Thank you for sharing your journey.

AUDIO BOOKS ! They help my brain be creative while not having to "sit still" in a way. I can stay busy while being busy lol

I wasn't quite fond of you at first but I'm growing to have a great amount of respect for you. I'm happy to see you doing better. Congratulations, on 1 year sober

I’ve been going through this and I’m trying to get sober now after a million relapses. I’m on day 2, which is kind of a miracle because I couldn’t even get through a whole day before. These new Gabbie videos have some divine timing for me. I quit social media years ago

I was a daily weed smoker since I was 13 I just quit at the beginning of this year. I'm 31 now. It used to be so much apart of my life and I used it to numb my emotions and trauma for so long that I became so dependent on it. Until it started giving me major anxiety. The same thing happened to all my friends. Eventually it started giving them anxiety and they had to quit. I attribute it to a big part of my mental health struggles toward the end. And even then I couldn't quit because I was so addicted. But, I've never been so happy that I was finally able to and my emotions and thoughts have never been more clear. It's not easy though because I really have to sit and process a lot of my past memories and trauma I just wasn't present for that whole time. It's sad. I don't remember most of my life because I was just so numb. I know the memories are there though I just need to practice mindfulness and meditate regularly and I'll be good.

It's so crazy how people will be like "no its not bad for you because I had the exact opposite experience" and not consider that just because something is good for you doesn't mean it's bad for someone else...

I’ve been watching you since I was like… 12 or something (I’m 22 now). I’m so happy to see you’re doing better, and a part of me feels healed as well. I also struggled with weed and alcohol and have quit them (mostly) but this really motivated me to go an entire year. Thank you.

You need a podcast. You’re so calming, and I love how I relate to what you’re going through and just listening makes me feel so much better. I love your work gabbie

Honestly this was my exact experience. Thought I couldn't live without it and my anxiety and depression were only being kept at bay because I was smoking. Turns out it was the opposite, and I've never been happier. A year and a half later I can finally occasionally partake and not instantly feel pulled back into that depressive state. But I am no longer high 24/7 (or probably more like 16/7 but still), and don't feel like I NEED it. It's not that weed itself is addictive, but it's an addiction to ditching reality. And even when you're ditching reality, you have this underlying anxiety that you're avoiding everything so you can't even relax when you're high. At least that was my experience. Good luck, Gabbie. Proud of you.

I’m so happy to come across this video. It’s been so scary watching you struggle over the years. Girl.. I’ve been praying for you!! PRAYING!! Thank you God

This is the inspiration I needed. When I first started smoking, it used to be all fun and actually helped ease my severe social anxiety. At some point that shifted to the opposite, I get very in my head and have a lot of flashbacks. It started to work great for journaling and meditation on the issues that caused my PTSD, but it puts me in a negative headspace if I try to just watch stuff, hang out, or do stuff around the house. Not to mention it just sucks all the motivation out of my body. No more bendable boundaries around how many times a week and what time, it’s time for a year break. Thanks for this 🙏
